And when that happens, it will determine when these tests can be given. First the change in mamogram standards, now this. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 782508Yep, I think that's what it's about. Although, for myself, I'm tired of doctors up in my nether regions or crushing my breasts - so I don't mind the guidelines, but I agree with you. |

However, in the end you can't be forced to take any exam you don't want to. But the other side of it is not being able to have those exams when you feel it is necessary, or your doctor. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 818619 United States 11/20/2009 11:08 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Why should I have to lay out $200+ every year for these tests? Not to mention the mammograms which cause cancer. This is all just busy work that nickel and dimes women. If men were supposed to put their dicks in some crushing device that caused as much cancer as it detected, the medical establishment would have put a stop to it years ago. The medical policies involving women are some stupid shit and medical industry has used women's issues as cash cows for decades. |

Resister User ID: 669410 United States 11/20/2009 11:12 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Mammograms last week. Cervical Cancer tests this week. coming soon: Prostate screenings Cholesterol check ups General physicals X-Rays Ultrasounds MRIs all sorts of life saving services and treatments... Tip of the iceberg "God forbid we should ever be 20 years without such a rebellion. The people cannot be all, & always, well informed... If they remain quiet under such misconceptions it is a lethargy, the forerunner of death to the public liberty... Let them take arms... What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots & tyrants. " - Thomas Jefferson in 1787 |

Yes, this is the method that will be used to implement rationing. But don't kid yourselves for one minute that you can't be forced to take an examination under govt run health program. They can REQUIRE you to do things like that as well as take whatever vaccines and treatments they say you will. One of the most important aspects of conspiracy theories is being able to discern when there isn't one. Oh yeah, like you'd understand anyway. Where are we going and why am I in this handbasket?. . .J. Handy |

I'm not a woman, so i don't know. but do doctors physically force women to get any test at all? or just advise? They tend to advise and pressure - I had a fit at my last doctors because he wouldn't give me my single prescription unless I underwent cancer testing which in my case required yet another colonoscopy. I got another doctor, got my prescription, weaned myself off of it and haven't been back to a doctor in years. |
